Maybe it ended up being a little over $100. 17:41:35 yeah, something like that 17:41:39 In any case, gnucash knows exactly what it was. ;) 17:41:55 Two people each gave $20 via square. 17:41:56 and then after i made my last plea, we got a little more 17:41:59 after the meeting. 17:42:54 hmmm.. we should check the total - i think i recall seeing some more cash in afterwards, too 17:43:09 Gotcha. I'll look at the records and email out the final number. 17:43:15 cool, thanks 17:43:28 ok want to go ahead and talk about a potential hack night? 17:44:15 Sure. It'll be a short conversation from my side. ;) 17:44:19 heh 17:44:24 ok, shoot 17:44:56 I'm leaving on an 8-day trip Friday morning, so I shouldn't obligate myself to anything Thurs. night. 17:45:15 that seems reasonable :) 17:45:24 Unless someone has a specific thing they want to do this month and is ready to advertise right now, I think we should just pass. 17:45:28 And let Caktus know. 17:45:41 i agree 17:45:47 jbradberry, one of their employees, was asking about it this morning in #trilug. 17:45:51 And I said we'd email about it. 17:45:56 ok, thank you 17:46:07 Who should do that? 17:46:20 the only other potential hack night topic was jeremyhwllc's balloon project 17:46:34 but i haven't heard back :/ 17:47:15 i'll follow up with jeremy and let jbradberry know 17:47:23 can you fwd me his email, or paste it here? 17:47:37 I don't know if I have it. 17:47:44 #action whippythellama check with jeremyhwllc re: tritux-in-space hack night 17:47:48 hmmm... 17:48:01 Do we have a usual contact at caktus? 17:48:11 ok, next logical question - how are we supposed to get back to him? :) 17:48:27 I assumed we had a point of contact over there we could notify. 17:48:32 And that it didn't necessarily have to be him. 17:48:52 ah, ok - i was left with the impression that we were supposed to contact him directly 17:48:53 We can ping him in #trilug and tell him we email whoever. 17:49:04 i believe we have contact info for caktus on the steering site 17:49:08 i'll check 17:50:28 perhaps follow up after? 17:50:33 I have a thing around 2pm... 17:50:34 i'll also either get Jeremy to email out about his hack night, or get an announcement out that we aren't having it 17:50:38 yep 17:50:53 #topic August Meeting 17:51:12 i was really hoping Jeremy was going to be here for this - i think he was following up with a couple of speakers 17:51:29 i'll ping Dwain Sims about his RAID talk and see if he's ready 17:51:38 but we're cutting this one really close :( 17:51:51 #action whippythellama ping Dwain Sims re: RAID in August 17:52:02 and i'll re-ping Brian and Jeff about theirs as well 17:52:08 If we don't have anything by this time next week, I propose we declare lighting talks. 17:52:12 #action whippythellama ping Jeff and Brian re: talks for August 17:52:21 great idea 17:52:37 we haven't had one in a while either, so that's a plus 17:52:44 We can arm-twist enough people to do 5 or 10 minutes on something. 17:52:58 indeed 17:53:23 ok, good - thank you for that suggestion 17:53:35 hadn't even occurred to me, for some reason :) 17:53:45 movin on... 17:53:52 #topic Sponsorships 17:54:06 still no news from the recruiters, but i'll keep pinging 17:54:15 anything on the project atomic one? 17:54:17 Yeah... 17:54:25 Nothing new there. 17:54:40 I'll follow up. Can't remember if he's been travelling recently or not. 17:54:59 sure, no worries - we have until october :) 17:54:59 but he's good for presenting in October. 17:55:11 excellent - that is good to hear 17:55:23 FWIW I may have to miss the Sept meeting. 17:55:29 oh? travelling again? 17:55:38 giving the same k8s talk at Open Source Summit LA 17:55:43 that week. 17:55:49 nice! 17:56:08 ya, it's the big-daddy Linux Foundation event. 17:56:18 oh sweet - that should be fun 17:56:38 ok, since we're running short... 17:56:45 #topic Tech Items 17:56:52 qqx: any news on the os upgrade? 17:57:12 no, but I expect to make some progress over the next week. 17:57:33 ok, cool - let us know if you need/want help, or reach out to the list 17:57:51 we've had a couple of password reset requests as well 17:57:56 have those been handled? 17:58:09 Not as far as I know. 17:58:25 ok, would you mind checking back with them? 17:58:25 IIRC, both of them are cases where our membership DB has outdated info. 17:58:34 ah - so no valid email? 17:59:00 At least different from that supplied in the reset requests. 17:59:34 gotcha 17:59:39 But, yeah I'll attempt to verify the requests somehow. 17:59:46 thank you! :) 17:59:48 sweet. 18:00:11 ok, it's right at 2, so... 18:00:13 That's one of the reasons I'd like to setup something to periodically verify info in the DB. 18:00:19 #topic General Business 18:00:26 that's a good idea, qqx 18:00:33 any final items? 18:00:37 I'll be working from our Israeli office next week, so I'll likely miss this meeting. 18:00:47 Videos for the last couple of meetings? 18:01:03 I realize it's pretty earlier for the most recent one. 18:02:14 qqx: yeah, i owe the june one still - i left it on my desktop machine (working from myrtle beach this week), but i'll try to pull it down here and see if i can get it taken care of 18:02:38 Jeremy recorded this month's, and i'll follow up with him to see where he is with it 18:02:47 mhrivnak: gotcha - thanks for the heads-up 18:03:14 ok, if that's it, i think we're done 18:03:27 that's all I have. 18:03:43 nothing else here 18:03:52 cool - thanks, guys 18:03:55 #endmeeting
